Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.25 cups Dijon mustard
- 0.25 cups Honey
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the honey mustard sauce.
Step 3
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place them in a baking dish large enough to hold them without overlapping.
Step 4
Pour the honey mustard sauce evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring all pieces are well coated.
Step 5
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Step 6
Remove the aluminum foil and spoon some of the sauce from the dish over the chicken. Return the dish to the oven and bake uncovered for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and is golden on top.
Step 7
Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Step 8
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm with your favorite sides like rice, roasted vegetables, or a crisp salad.
